Yup. Just made Jazz Jackrabbit 3. The whole thing.

Not too shabby if I do say so, myself.

http://drawingforward.com/game/jj3v11

I can see this flying off of the shelves for 59.99 US dollars. No sweat.

Let me know if anything needs work.



On a serious note, the game development software I'm using wants access to the hard drive. Normally this is used for game saves, but this game doesn't use it. Feel free to deny it, as I'm not sure how to disable it yet.

########UPDATE#########

Free update! EA and Activision value this update at 15 US dollars!

changes in 1.1

*bullets now have a life-span of 1 second
*game now scales to fit browser window (See the game in STUNNING HD!)
*reformatted for widescreen displays
*visual tweaks (colors, UI & level geometry)
*touch controls added for mobile devices
*rapid-fire when using touch controls
*added collision polygons to Jazz & Turtles (improved collision detection)
*Replaced victory message font with "Comic Sans MS".

Known Bugs:
*Jazz can still fire & change direction during the victory screen.
*holding touch button "1" to fire and pressing "z" rapidly lets you shoot ABNORMALY FAST. You can shoot as fast as KOREANS! You will play against Koreans and win. People will mistake you for Koreans and you will be deported back to KOREA!
*Touch controls are always enabled. Clicking "Enable Touch" just makes them visible.

Not Exactly Bugs:
*Dopefish is swim,swim, but no hungry.

####Update again####

Game is crashing on Firefox Mobile. Works in Android web browser but doesn't support multi-touch. x_x

If it works for ios, I'll be ok with that. If not, I gave it a good shot.

Oops! Yeah, I was wondering if I would need touch controls. I'll see what I can do.

EDIT!
Fixed. Main post has been updated :).

Touch controls work for iPod Touch and are a nicety having been an anti-advocate of touch-screen for ages since touch-screen grocery self-check-out (wouldn't the food get sick?)

No idle animations, alternate ammunitions or special moves. No looking up or crouching (down button does nothing and up button jumps). No sun anywhere in sky. No drinking water for turtles or rabbits. No loading screen displaying world from space. No Eva Earlong.

Jazz changed from orange to red armbands. Guessing he is on Diamondus, did the dopefish eat a mountain range? Also, if it is Diamondus, here is a remix of Diamondus music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8xMYrhwAbg

I like that control scheme is always visible during gameplay. There is no way to make Jazz run.

This game made me realize that JJ2 is strange to use topleft corner as 0,0 instead of bottomleft corner as 0,0.

JJ3 works with touchscreen for Windows Phone.

Funny. I'm migrating to a different server and was browsing through my directories. I was just testing this out on my phone just a few minutes ago.

Multi-touch seems to work in Firefox for Android. Surprisingly well. I did notice that the "enable touch" button is hard to read, even on a 4 inch screen. I will have to set it so that it displays the touch controls automatically when touch is used. Desktop users won't even see them :)... Unless they have a touch screen and try poking at it.

Works well on Firefox OS 1.3-prerelease, altough when using any horizontal orientation, the game is upside down, but I think it's problem with the browser, didn't tested (yet) with any other Construct 2 game.
I must say It's suprisingly good, Jazz's character is well developed throughout the game, Spaz is somewhat absent but I guess it will be explained in JJ4.

Doesn't that already exist? Jazz 3 (http://drawingforward.com/game/jj3v11) Jazz 4 (http://drawingforward.com/game/jj3v11). Or is it not Jazz 4, is it Holiday Hare 2013?

Hare

To be honest, it started as an attempt to make a Holiday Hare 2013.

I didn't get very far with it before Christmas came and went. The project sat a few weeks, then I picked it up again. I threw in a Renfred character sprite I had on hand and made a functional mini game. Jazz ended up popping back into the project, though.

I would have liked to create something more adequate. Construct 2 (the software I make these in) is capable and dead simple to work with. Maybe with some time.

Well, CC99 was actually released in 2000(And IIRC, it was in January), so perhaps you're going along with the tradition set by Epic? XD

Unnecessary thread revival but, to be honest, I've seen indie games worse than Hare's JJ3.

Who hasn't, really? The internet is full of fanboys who want to make games, but usually have no good art or programing skills. Oh and the games are probably rushed.

And really, we all know the game was made this way on pourpose :lol:
I have to admit, this could be really good if it were given proper sprites etc.

Jelly, does this remind you of an individual that used to post (a lot) on these forums (and no one really liked him)? ;) <!-- NOT ME, OF COURSE. -->
